Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling

Little Paperman moved too quickly for Shen Zhe to react, and the electric flower flung by it struck a wood carving.
There was a loud "snap", and the previously sinister wood carving now lay quietly there.
Following from behind, although Director Liao could not see the yin energy emanating from the wood carving, he did see the electric flower released by Little Paperman.
Usually upright and proper, he was deeply plunged into self-doubt.
Shen Zhe looked at the now ineffective wood carving, somewhat speechless.
If it weren’t for the fact that Little Paperman belonged to Yun Ran, and Yun Ran was personally sent by Director Xie, he would have suspected that Little Paperman sent by Yun Ran was an insider.
Yun Ran also came over at this time, curiously looking at a few bizarrely shaped wood carvings.
"Hey, this family actually worships an Evil God!"
Yun Ran’s voice immediately drew everyone’s attention, as they all looked towards him in unison.
"Do you know what this is?"
Yun Ran nodded, "I once read about it in an ancient book. There was a tribe that worshipped an Evil God, where if anyone from their tribe appeared, that city would almost invariably become a dead city.
Later, they were exterminated by an old Taoist leading people. All those who went to the suppression that day died in that conflict."
If it weren’t for this world lacking Qingfeng Temple, these people would definitely know that the old Taoist leading the charge back then was from Qingfeng Temple.
Sadly, that old Taoist perished together with the followers of the Evil God, their Divine Souls shattered.
Qingfeng Temple held such a high stature not only because of its disciples’ abilities but more so because the people of Qingfeng Temple truly stood firm, preferring death over retreat.
Yun Ran didn’t expect that this Evil God really had its hands in everything, even in the world of this novel!
"Why haven’t I heard of this matter?"
Shen Zhe felt that he was well-read, especially after joining the Special Administration Bureau, he was privy to many secrets unknown to outsiders.
Yet he had never seen these wood carvings before, he didn’t even know such a tribe existed.
"There are many things you don’t know, the male head of this family must be a follower of the Evil God, he sacrificed his own family and himself as a human sacrifice."
Director Liao looked doubtful, "What was his purpose in doing this? Following the Evil God should have a purpose, now that his entire family is gone, what’s the point?"
It’s a question any normal person would have.
But those who worship the Evil God are no longer normal, their minds are already twisted.
Yun Ran did not answer Director Liao, because some things do not have logical reasoning.
"I will remind you, these followers are not alone, but many people. You should best check if this family’s male head was involved in any group activities.
Those people, like him, might be performing human sacrifices at some point, and this case won’t be the last."
Yun Ran’s words made Director Liao’s expression turn very sour.
Just as Yun Ran finished speaking, someone rushed in hurriedly and whispered a few words into Director Liao’s ear, and Yun Ran even noted the man’s face turn ghastly pale.
"I know, you may go."
After the person left, Director Liao looked at Yun Ran, "You were right, five kilometers away, another similar case has occurred, the colleagues there have already sealed off the area."
This type of case, one occurrence was already taxing enough for them, and now there’s another!
If Yun Ran’s suspicion was correct, similar cases are likely to continue, causing Director Liao’s forehead veins to nearly burst.
"Director Liao, we’ve found something!"
Hearing a voice from the neighboring room, they hurriedly left the kitchen and watched as the forensics team found a black card under the bed, which read "Divine Envoy".
"This perhaps indicates the man’s status within that group."
"Ptui, an Evil God also having a Divine Envoy!"
Just as Shen Zhe finished speaking, the black card suddenly shot out a black little snake, heading straight for Shen Zhe’s face.
No one expected such a thing to happen.
Yun Ran kicked Shen Zhe down and firmly grabbed the tail of the Evil Energy-solidified little black snake.
Caught, the little black snake, filled with rage, turned around and fiercely bit Yun Ran’s arm.
Everyone in the room watched as Yun Ran’s face, within less than a second, swelled up like a pig’s head, and turned dark.
Upon seeing its master being bitten, Little Paperman couldn’t remain calm, charging forward.
"Seeking death, daring to bite my master, watch me eat you!"
Saying so, Little Paperman opened its mouth and swallowed the little snake whole.
Until the black snake’s tail disappeared inside Little Paperman’s mouth.
The previously hand-sized Little Paperman emitted purple light and grew with a few thuds to the size of a basketball.
Shen Zhe quickly got up and looked at Yun Ran’s bitten arm glowing dark, with the Blood Bead also turning black.
A look of shock mixed with guilt flashed in his eyes.
"Ranran, how are you!"
The swollen-faced Yun Ran looked unusually comical, she felt somewhat disheartened, but had the little black snake bitten Shen Zhe, he would have undoubtedly been dead.
"Wa muh ash~"
Everyone: ...
You don’t look like you’re alright.
Yun Ran squeezed out the black blood from her arm, and Little Paperman immediately flew over, rubbing its paper head on the blood.
While Little Paperman grew larger, Yun Ran’s pig-like swelling slowly subsided.
Until Yun Ran returned to normal, which actually took just a few minutes, still, her complexion turned a few shades paler.
"These Divine Messenger Cards are attached with a strand of Evil God’s telekinesis, we need to call for the experts!"
Even without Yun Ran saying this, Director Liao had no intention of letting his people touch these anymore, the power was indeed terrifying.
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would have doubted that all this was fictitious.
"Comrade Yun Ran, your paper doll seems to be able to restrain these things, could you possibly..."
Director Liao hadn’t finished speaking when Yun Ran interrupted, "No!"
She had lent out a paperman before and couldn’t get it back, if she lent another one now, she’d be a fool!
Director Liao looked towards Shen Zhe, hoping Shen Zhe would help say a few words.
Shen Zhe, gaze flickering, looked out the window, he couldn’t bring himself to ask.
